Pecan Pie recipe

I was trying to stay away from a sweets for a while but it is simply not possible. I am too weak :) Our favorite this Fall became a Pecan Pie, store bought and home made. Any way it's delicious and very sweet-tooth-satisfying.
The last one I baked was gone in a day and everyone is wondering, what actually is happened to the pie since each person had just a small slice?

I guess, no one can control their portion size these days :)

Here is the recipe if you'd like to make it at home.

Ingredients:
1 9" refrigerated Pillsbury pie crust
6 table spoons unsalted butter
1 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups pecans, coarsely chopped
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place pie crust into 9" glass dish. Fill the pie shell with pecans.
Make the filing:

In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, maple syrup and butter. Heat over medium heat until butter melts and remove from the heat.

In a medium bowl, beat eggs until frothy. Add vanilla and salt.

Gradually beat in hot syrup mixture, stirring constantly.

Pour the mixture into the pie shell.

Bake at 350'F for 1 hour. Let it chill and refrigerate overnight before serving.
Enjoy!
